Below you will see examples of my work created using Stata, R, and Gephi.
Social Network Analysis Centered on New York Primary
Looking at the two populist campaigns of Sanders and Cruz, I downloaded millions of tweets during the days leading up to the New York Primary. I then conducted a network analysis using Gephi and also created simple word clouds of the top hashtags for each campaign. Note that the Gephi files are incredible large and detailed, which is why I have chosen to upload them as PDFs.
